Building a temp mail service where your account is a 16 digit number. No email, no KYC, crypto only.

@Mowgli_Trading 6:49am is not an accident. Half-awake, no coffee, zero scrutiny. And €269 is calibrated: big enough to panic you, small enough to be plausible. The whole con is buying two seconds of your thinking time.

@Nayak__Ai Every one of those 5 switches is Google's to flip back. The only setting they can't change is what never reached the inbox. Burner for signups, the real address for people who actually matter.

@Lowdef1 @Tangem Optional is doing a lot of work in that sentence, and it should. The moment the spending layer becomes mandatory to use the wallet, self custody is just branding.

@rustybrick Google runs edits to the phone number field through review, but a phone number baked into a JPEG isn't a field. It's just pixels on a photo attached to the listing.

@DelCrxpto @Trezor What definition of "cold" are you using? If it's "key never touches an online device," airgapped signers clearly exist. If it's "nothing can ever go wrong," sure, but that was never the claim.

@EvaahereAi The control most people skip: stop routing everything through one address. Throwaway for signups, real one for the bank. Then no model gets the whole picture, whichever switch is on.

@EliNagar "Success" is the agent's word for "the form accepted my input." It has no opinion on who owns the form. Completion is not verification, and an agent that can't tell the difference is a very fast intern with your wallet.

@MBerger47 A unique alias per vendor doubles as a leak detector. The day ledgershop@ starts getting 'urgent wallet migration' mail, you know exactly whose database walked out the door. The rule that matters: never reuse one across shops.

[digitsonly @digitsonly]

@btcnewsalerts Breach lists make phishing personal. They know your name, your address, and that you own a wallet. Give every vendor its own email alias. When one leaks, you know exactly who sold you out and you can burn that address.

@kycfree The friction is the whole fight. KYC-free signup takes 30 seconds, KYC takes 3 days and a selfie holding your passport. Yet most people pick the slow one because it's the default. Defaults beat preferences every time.

[digitsonly @digitsonly]

@Astoll15 Worth separating the goal from the mechanism. If the worry is a handful of frontier-scale runs, you can get there with reporting thresholds on the operator side rather than identity checks on every tenant.

@Nikitont @solcard @kardpay @AnomaPay @LasoFinance @xhypeofficial @payy_link Good breakdown. One axis missing: what the issuer logs at signup. Email, IP, device fingerprint and referral source get stored on day one and survive every tier upgrade. KYC just attaches a legal name to that existing file.

[digitsonly @digitsonly]

@Nikitont Worth splitting into layers: merchant-facing (alias name/BIN), issuer-facing (KYC, funding source), and rail-facing (network + acquirer). Most 'private card' marketing only touches layer 1. Layers 2 and 3 are where subpoenas land.

@ideafaktory That license clause isn't unusual, which is the actual problem. Most large platforms ask for the same thing. People just don't read it until someone quotes it back at them.

It's live. Link in bio. Launch offer next week, terms posted when it starts.

Here is what I've been building: mktemp. Temp mail where the inbox belongs to you.

[digitsonly @digitsonly]

Prepaid credits instead of a subscription. No card on file, nothing to cancel. Pay in BTC, Lightning, LTC, DOGE, XMR, USDT or USDC.

[digitsonly @digitsonly]

@CryptoReve_ALTs The checklist is the easy part. The real questions: who stores the ID scans, for how long after you close the account, which third-party vendor processes them, and does the breach notice reach you or a press release?

@ChariHor The City of Things / Antwerp Smart Zone agreements are the ones I've never managed to read in full. Do the covenants in there cover that programme, and if so which years?
